Pep played it save imho. His first club was Barca which is already flooded with talent all around the pitch. He just did some minor changes, then Messi and co took over on the pitch.

After that go for Bayern, Bayern is already title contender in Bundesliga. So actually, not a big challenge to him. I dare him to manage teams like West Ham, Stoke, Fulham. Let's see if he has the managerial skill to improve this lower rank team into a title contender.

In terms of motivation and spirit, no one beats SAF. The way he can motivate the players to perform mammoth task is simply superb. Man Utd squad for the last season and this season is actually almost identical, no major signings, but SAF can win the PL with the same set of players, kudos to him, players seem to level up when playing for SAF.

Ah Moy need sometime, you can't expect a new manager to just win the league in his first season, unless he is Mou.
